Democrats voted for David Duke who was listed as a Republican. Keep on trollin, Truman.
Not "trollin" weegee but simply pointing out that when you were incorrect when you wrote:
"The only reason this two-term crook got re-elected AFTER being convicted (and then he "crooked" some more) was because a significant number of Democrats voted for David Duke in the GOP primary in Louisiana."
You see weegee, there was not such thing as a GOP Primary when Edwin Edwards the Democrat beat David Duke the Republican in a runoff for Louisiana governor.
Moreover, in the 1991 Open Primary and runnoff there is no evidence whatsoever that Democrats voted in significant numbers for David Duke. Instead, exit poll data show that 55% of Whites in the State of Louisiana voted for David Duke in that runoff.
As for me, I voted for the Crook, Edwin Edwards as opposed to the Klansman, David Duke.
So, weegee, who would have you voted for, David Duke or Edwin Edwards?
